This is a gentle and fun entry into the world of Hip-Hop dance. The
students will learn basic Hip-Hop movement vocabulary and learn
simple Hip-Hop dance routines. Previous experience in Hip-Hop
dance is not required. Students will have the opportunity to bring
their favorite Hip-Hop/R & B songs to class and have dance moves
set to their song. The music can be ol' school or current. The
fundamental requirement for the class is a profound love and
Course respect for Hip-Hop and respect for others. Each student will keep a
Description process log, view two Hip-Hop or contemporary dance events, and
participate in a cypher. Students will also have the opportunity to
"trade" moves so that everyone learns from each other. Hip-Hop
dance is all about unity, encouragement, and inclusion. This class is
design to honor Hip-Hop culture at its best.

Course Policies
Attendance, Punctuality, and Participation: (40%) The student’s
final grade will be lowered by 1/3 letter grade for each unexcused
absence. To receive an excused absence, a doctor’s note is required
immediately upon the student’s return to class. If you are late twice,
that equals one unexcused absence and shall be reflected in your
final grade. Students are graded on participation in class discussions,
preparation, and in-class activities. The student’s ability to take
direction, correction, preparedness, and willingness to readily
participate and work as part of a team will be measured and graded
by the instructor.
Grading (credit)
Criteria
Participation and In-class Movement Assignments: (10%)
Students are graded on participation in class discussions, preparation,
and in-class activities. Preparation includes appropriate attire for
movement (I recommend you wear jazz hard-toed shoes and clothing
you can move in, but don’t mind getting soiled. I also recommend
you secure a pair of knee pads.) Each week the student will
participate in in-class movement projects.
A student at the university neither loses the rights nor escapes the
responsibilities of citizenship. He or she is expected to obey federal,
state, and local laws as well as the Regents’ Rules, university
regulations, and administrative rules. Students are subject to
discipline for violating the standards of conduct whether such
conduct takes place on or off campus, or whether civil or criminal
penalties are also imposed for such conduct.
Essentially, the law requires that colleges and universities make those
Disability
reasonable adjustments necessary to eliminate discrimination on the
Services
basis of disability. For example, it may be necessary to remove
classroom prohibitions against tape recorders or animals (in the case
of dog guides) for students who are blind. Occasionally an
assignment requirement may be substituted (for example, a research
paper versus an oral presentation for a student who is hearing
impaired). Classes enrolled students with mobility impairments may
have to be rescheduled in accessible facilities. The college or
university may need to provide special services such as registration,
note-taking, or mobility assistance.
